This is an incredibly powerful helicopter gunship
that is armed with rapid-fire 30mm cannon
(grenade launcher), anti-air missiles, anti-tank
missiles, and dumb-fire rockets. You must have an
anti-armor rifle and a RPG or anti tank rocket.
Grenades work somewhat, but are not recommended.
You cannot use an anti air. Find one flying (try
the North Korean Allied MASH, when you complete
the second ACE contract you will "unlock" this).
Once you are there, find a YAH-56 Gunship with
the binoculars. Then, go to it and make sure it
is over flat land. Take out your RPG or your anti
tank rocket and shoot above it. It will fly down
slightly. Then, take out your anti armor rifle
and shoot the pilot (located the back seat of the
helicopter). If you cannot see him through the
glass, shoot under the cockpit. Once he is dead,
you will have about $25, 000 depleted and your
helicopter should land on the ground safely. Try
again if it falls on its side or something else
happens. Do not be afraid of the tail rotor. If
it is half way in a rock, it does not effect it.
Note: This strategy can be used with any
helicopter.

Turn on your system. If you are like some people
(not me): you have your computer in your bedroom
with your system and TV, playing now, then either
drive to the M*A*S*H* or call a Medivac. Turn
left. You should appear in a little SK/NK battle.
Get some mulah by killing the NKs (this will also
make it easier). Find the white delivery flatbed
truck. Found it? Good. Order/hijack a helicopter
and load barrels, crates, etc. into the bed with
the winch (be careful). Get out of the copter and
in the truck. Remember where you left your copter
and transport the stuff to various places. Be
sure to take the turns carefully to avoid
possibly losing cargo. This will not earn you
anything (cash, faction, etc.), unless
you "mistakenly" hit a NK or listening post or
get a treasure, WMD, etc. It doesn't unlock
anything, but it's fun to do

There is a way to have your land vehicle winched
while you're inside. First, you take your
vehicle to a flat area. Then, order a weak car
(jaju recommended). Shoot the weak car while
it's still winched, until it's destroyed. Then,
quickly get in the other vehicle and center it
so the helicopter winch picks you up. It will
stay there until you shoot it enough until the
soldier will have to abort. At the slightest
movement of lifting off, get back in the vehicle
before the copter gets away! you will be
traveling with the copter, but it will head into
a restricted area. For even more fun, enter the
invincible cheat, then get out of the car (you
can't get out with tanks or APCs).
Note: Sometimes, the person will reel in the
winch before picking up your vehicle, but keep
trying!

The YAH-56 Gunship is the most powerful helicopter
in the game; it is armed with rapid-fire 30mm
cannon (grenade launcher), anti-air missiles,
anti-tank missiles, and dumb-fire rockets. You
must have an anti-armor rifle and a RPG or anti
tank rocket. Grenades work somewhat, but are not
recommended. You cannot use an anti air. Find one
flying (try the North Korean Allied MASH, when you
complete the second ACE contract you will "unlock"
this). Once you are there, find a YAH-56 Gunship
with the binoculars. Then, go to it and make sure
it is over flat land. Take out your RPG or your
anti tank rocket and shoot above it. It will fly
down slightly. Then, take out your anti armor
rifle and shoot the pilot (located the back seat
of the helicopter). If you cannot see him through
the glass, shoot under the cockpit. Once he is
dead, you will have about $25, 000 depleted and
your helicopter should land on the ground safely.
Try again if it falls on its side or something
else happens. Do not be afraid of the tail rotor.
If it is half way in a rock, it does not effect
it. Note: This strategy can be used with any
helicopter.
To get the YAH-56 Gunship easier, get a standard
sniper rifle and shoot the bottom. If this does
not kill the pilot, the chopper will lower
somewhat. Walk in front of the chopper, then shoot
the front seat and the pilot will die.
To find a YAH-56 Gunship, go to the second
province, then go to the Mafia garage. To the left
of the front of the garage is a challenge marked
with the "$" symbol. Take the challenge, but
instead of flying to the goal, do some recon and
learn where all the A.T.A. missile launchers are
and destroy them in any way possible. Next, fly to
the nuclear power plant. Instead of taking out all
the people, fly to the gunship and take it. You
now have your own flying tank. Note: If you lose
your disguise, North Koreans will get in your
gunship, start shooting at you, and force you to
blow it up.
